As an OTRS agent, when the subject of an article contacts OTRS requesting deletion, we generally explain the inclusion criteria to the subject, and work with the subject to identify inaccuracies and corrections.

In this case, however, I agree with the subject that he does not need an article here. I have examined every source cited. Aside from the dead links, none of the sources provide the required significant coverage of the subject to meet the general notability guideline, and most of the ones cited are either written by the subject or are trivial mentions. If all that is removed, there's hardly anything left of the article.

The only claim to notability might be a couple of obscure journalism awards &mdash; and the coverage gives Rosen only trivial mentions. Therefore I agree with Mr Rosen that this article is a valid candidate for deletion. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:52, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Update: Since nominating this for deletion, the non-value-added sources and associated text have been removed, leaving hardly anything left to merit a stand-alone article. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:45, 17 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete The awards are not on a level that would make recipients notable, especially since at least one was awarded to a team of reporters. Not everyone employed as a journalist by the New York Times is notable, and short of that we have no sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:58, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
